I See Myself Best When My Eyes Are Closed
Location
A reflection
Millions of beams of light hit a mirror
They bounce off and tell me who I am
They tell me what I am to be
What I am to do
Who to fall in love with
I lash at it and turn away
My peers tell me
We have an accessory for this
We have these filters for that
Yet they do not see me
I am not in need of these filters
These drastic changes to the landscape of my life
For I am next in line
To rise up and become courageous
I close my eyes and think deep
And shape my own destiny
For I see myself best when my eyes are closed
I see myself best as I chose
To be who I am in my truest of truths
And to be who I am in every shape and form
